Field Update

update from Guna/Narayanan in the field.

(i) temporary shelter in kiLLai, near chidambaram:
Vedics volunteers visited the place once again; govt is facing issue
in getting a land for temp shelters etc., once its clear they will inform us;

(ii) Our volunteers are meeting with the DRDA/Collector of kAnchi district today;
our request is for the authorities to identify a small village where we can do more
long-term help - i.e. build huts/small houses, provide household items for reestablishing
their life, buy books/clothing etc, and help them with training/counselling if necessary.

(iii) We are in touch with DRDA (Dist Rural Devp Agency) officer for Cuddalore as well
- they mentioned a need for Blankets, Torches , Candles, Trunk Boxes (Non corrosive),
plastic bags; we are following it up with him to get a better picture & count.
==============================================================

Your contribution means a great deal to the families who are in desperate need.
Funds are needed to help support the relief effort.

With Vedics Foundation: 95c to the $ reaches as relief to the Victims.
(5c to the $ goes in currency exchange, wire transfers and communications)
